it was feared fatally, hurt by runaway
team. In the morning of Saturday his
team ran away with his self binder break
ing it up quite badly. He gathered up
the fragments took them to Manitowoc
and started for home with another self

while attempting to hold them one of
the bits broke. The man was thrown
out and the heavy box in which the reap
er was slowed fell upon him. DR.. Frazer

injured man would not recover. He was
taken to the city hospital and is now do

SELLS BROTHERS. INNOVATIONS!
A PROMINENT LEGAL LIGHT ENTHUsEs OVER
SELLS Rig AGGREGATION.


I've always been an inveterate circus
goer," remarked a well-known local at
torney, while chatting with party of
friends at his office, last evening, land
thought that had seen everything worth
looking at in the tented show line, but
after witnessing performance of Sells
Brothers circls in Kansas City. few
days ago, | must admit that | was con-
siderably startled to find that | was not
so bldSe on horse opera as had suppos-
ed. The Messrs. Sells have gathered up
more entirely new, brilliant and sensa-
tional attractions than | ever saw before
in one combination. The circus proper
is given in two rings and on a huge
theatre stage, the whole being encircled
by an immense race track, on which the
hippodrome contests and Pawnee olll's
Wild West exhibition take pace
Novelties follow each other with bewlld-
ering rapidity, and with all my noncha-
lance | caught myself cheering several
times with gusto that | had not expert
enced since | first beheld old Dan Rice
and his trick mule. The riders are all
corkers. There's Polly Lee, Belle Bry-
ant, Allie Sunlin, William Sells and
Bud German, all of whom do back and
forward somersaults, pirouettes and
other amazing feats. All manner of daZ-
cling acrobatic and gymnastic acts, bicy-
Gle riding, classic posturing, wire walk
ing, displays of strength, Juggling, leap
ing, broadsword combats, some Jim
Dandy Glowing, and exhibitions of
trained elephants, stations, dogs and
monkeys take place simultaneously IN
the two rings and on the big stage. 1t
keeps ones eye a bobin' to catch on to
everything that's going on. What struck
me as being the most daring aerial act /
ever saw was the performance of Strlk
and Zeno, on an elaborate arrangement
of trapeze rigging, away up at the apex
of the tent. Pawnee Bill and his scouts,
cowboys and Indians give thrilling Illus
trations of life on the plains and the biz
podrome races were applauded 10 the
echo. One of the most pleasing features
of the show is the spen3id music render
ed by Merrick's monster military band.

HE latest news In railroad matters is
that engineers for the Mil, L. S. & w. are
now running line from Rhinelander to
Ashland, This will shorten the distance
from Milwaukee to Ashland, by this read
40 miles. 1t is said the proposed route
runs through magnificent region OF
pine country. 1t is also said that when
this line is built, that portion of the old
line between Watefsmeet and Ashland
Will be sold to the Chicago & Northwest
ern.
A glance at the map will show that
this Is highly probable. The Northwest
ern has now line from Escanaba run
ming almost to Watersmeet. Should the
Northwestern push its line forward to the
Gogebic mines, it would command the
shipment of all the iron ore, az ore from
that region can be shipped by way OF
Escanaba to Clevsland at one dollar pei
ton less than by way of Ashland, The

ABOUT two o'clock this morning every
person in the city was awakened by the
furious whistling of tug. 1t blew long
notes, short notes, furious notes and
every kind of note which would cause
annoyance to decent people who were
abed. This disturbance seemed to be
kept up for fully half an hour and all to
awake the bridge tender on Main street.
1t was the tug Wisconsin from Green
Bay which created this disturbance when
the bridge tender could have been awak-
ened in three minutes by putting man
ashore for that purpose. Should that
captain again attempt that ear splitting
serenade at that unreasonable hour it is
hoped the officers will have something to
say about the disturbance created. Be
cause tug captain has steam whistle
is no reason why he should toot it so as
to awake the dead and make deaf the
living.

THE officers of the Columbus & Hook

THE officers of the Columbus Il Hook

last week to look over the docks at this
place. The company had given Mr.. Tice
carte blanche, as to the kind of docks to
be put in here, and he in the exercise OF
the discretion accorded him, decided to
put in docks which would compare favor
ably with the best The officers express
ed satisfaction with the work and were
somewhat astonished at the large dimen-
sions of the docks. Mr.. Iice has been
requested to draw plans for docks which
are to be put in at other points on the
lakes.

Here he treated quite freely and then

The horse was found near Sheboygan
